Extravasation refers to the inadvertent infiltration of any liquid (fluid or drug) from a vein into the subcutaneous or subdermal tissues during intravenous administration (1). Depending on the type, extravasation can result in damage to the tissues, cause pain, erythema, swelling and blistering. If left undiagnosed or inappropriately treated, this can lead to necrosis, secondary infection and functional loss of the tissue or possible permanent damage to the limb involved (2). Management of an extravasation depends on which drug has accidentally leaked into the tissues. Therefore, it is vital that the classification of the drug is known in order to direct the management of the extravasation. Currently, most hospital delivering HSE funded SACT services maintain their own extravasation classification lists and there are some variations between hospitals. The introduction of the National Cancer Information System (NCIS) presents a potential opportunity to implement a series of standardised documents for inclusion within the (NCIS) configuration. The NCCP has developed a standardised nursing document for the assessment of a suspected or diagnosed extravasation injury and an accompanying list of extravasation drug classifications for use in Irish hospitals and if possible, for inclusion within the NCIS configuration. The extravasation classification list is based on current International evidence (3-15). The NCCP extravasation classification list (Appendix 1) will classify parenteral SACT into four different types depending on their ability to cause local damage after extravasation. These categories should be implemented in all future extravasation recording documentation and electronic systems where possible. Vesicants DNA Binding Vesicants Non DNA Binding Irritants Neutrals (Non vesicants) As per the NCCP Oncology Medication Safety Review Report (16), each hospital is required to have a policy governing the prevention, recognition and treatment of extravasation. This should be developed in line with local practices and incorporate references to the documentation as described above. This document is based on internationally accepted guidance on the extravasation classification of drugs. Any clinician seeking to apply or consult these documents is expected to use independent medical judgement in the context of individual clinical circumstances to determine any patient's care or treatment.

Thus use of aprepitant 80 mg in the delayed phase is only for those cases where aprepitant 125 mg is used on day 1. • A probable modification in pediatric guidelines based on the recent Cochrane meta-analysis is indicated.

Despite early disappointments, monoclonal antibodies targeting CD38 (daratumumab) and signaling lymphocytic activation molecule F7 (SLAMF7) (elotuzumab) have become available for patients with multiple myeloma in the same year. Specifically, phase 3 clinical trials of combination therapies incorporating daratumumab or elotuzumab indicate both efficacy and a very favorable toxicity profile. These therapeutic monoclonal antibodies for multiple myeloma can kill target cells via antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, complement-dependent cytotoxicity, and antibody-dependent phagocytosis, as well as by direct blockade of signaling cascades.

  • The Potential of Adoptive Transfer of Γ9δ2 T Cells to Enhance
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The potential of adoptive transfer of γ9δ2 T cells to enhance blinatumomab’s antitumor activity against B‑cell malignancy Yun‑Hsiang Chen1, Yun Wang2, Cheng‑Hao Liao3 & Shu‑Ching Hsu4,5,6,7,8,9* Blinatumomab, a bispecifc T cell engager (BiTE) antibody targeting CD19 and CD3ε, can redirect T cells toward CD19‑positive tumor cells and has been approved to treat relapsed/refractory B‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B‑ALL). However, chemotherapeutic regimens can severely reduce T cells’ number and cytotoxic function, leading to an inadequate response to blinatumomab treatment in patients. In addition, it was reported that a substantial portion of R/R B‑ALL patients failing blinatumomab treatment had the extramedullary disease, indicating the poor ability of blinatumomab in treating extramedullary disease. In this study, we investigated whether the adoptive transfer of ex vivo expanded γ9δ2 T cells could act as the efector of blinatumomab to enhance blinatumomab’s antitumor activity against B‑cell malignancies in vivo. Repeated infusion of blinatumomab and human γ9δ2 T cells led to more prolonged survival than that of blinatumomab or human γ9δ2 T cells alone in the mice xenografted with Raji cells. Furthermore, adoptive transfer of γ9δ2 T cells reduced tumor mass outside the bone marrow, indicating the potential of γ9δ2 T cells to eradicate the extramedullary disease. Our results suggest that the addition of γ9δ2 T cells to the blinatumomab treatment regimens could be an efective approach to enhancing blinatumomab’s therapeutic efcacy. The concept of this strategy may also be applied to other antigen‑specifc BiTE therapies for other malignancies.

The present retrospective study investigated the efficacy and safety of oxaliplatin plus 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and leucovorin (LV) (FOLFOX) in locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer patients following cisplatin-based treatment. Thirty-three patients who had received one or two cisplatin-based regimens were treated with oxaliplatin (85 mg/m2) as a 2-h infusion on day 1, LV (200 mg/m2) as a 2-h infusion followed by bolus 5-FU (400 mg/m2) on day 1, or a 44-h continuous 5-FU (1,200 mg/m2) infusion. Patients were a mean of 67 years old with two involved organs. Metastases were mostly in the lung (43%), lymph nodes (51%) and liver (46%). Based on an intention-to-treat analysis, nine patients achieved a partial response, with an overall response rate of 27%. Eight (24%) patients had stable disease.

  • Safe Handling of Cytotoxic, Monoclonal Antibody & Hazardous Non-Cytotoxic Drugs
    PROCEDURE SAFE HANDLING OF CYTOTOXIC, MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY & HAZARDOUS NON-CYTOTOXIC DRUGS TARGET AUDIENCE All nursing, pharmacy and medical staff involved with dispensing, preparation, or administration of medicines. STATE ANY RELATED PETER MAC POLICIES, PROCEDURES OR GUIDELINES Administration and Management of Anti-Cancer Drugs Administration of Cytotoxics in the Home/Community Collection and Disposal of Soiled Linen Dangerous Goods and Hazardous Substances Environmental Management Individual Personal Protective Equipment (Cancer Research Division) Management of Cytotoxic Drug Spill Medication Management Medication Management for Nurses Pharmaceutical Review & Medication Supply Personal Protective Equipment Administration of Intravesical Immunotherapy BCG PURPOSE This procedure provides direction to all hospital staff involved in the management, preparation, transportation, administration of hazardous drugs and related wastes. In particular, safe handling practices for cytotoxic and hazardous non-cytotoxic drugs are outlined. BACKGROUND Hazardous drugs are regulated medicines that have been classified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of the United States and/or the Cancer Institute New South Wales as posing a risk to health from occupational exposure. Exposure to hazardous drugs can result in adverse health effects in healthcare workers. The health risk depends on how much exposure a worker has to these drugs and the specific toxicity of the drug. The occupational exposure risk of hazardous drugs is therefore evaluated according to risk of internalisation (by ingestion, absorption through mucous membranes, and penetration of skin) and risk of toxicity (carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, teratogenicity, and reproductive or fertility impairment, organ toxicity) at low doses and continuous exposure. Hazardous drugs include both cytotoxic and non-cytotoxic medicines such as chemotherapy, monoclonal antibodies, immunomodulatory drugs, and some anti-infective drugs.
